What's been going on

So, it's been a fairly uneventful week since I last updated. Thank goodness. Sadly, Wade and I have had terrible colds - causing more sleeplessness than having a newborn I think. Thankfully, Mallory has seemed to avoid getting, which I really have no idea how. Yes, we are psycho about hand washing and sanitizing here, but the coughing has really been non-stop. Wade seems to be over it and I am close to over it at this point, so let's hope Mallory stays healthy.

On the sleep front, aside from the cold issue, it seems we are getting a little more these days. Mallory, for whatever reason, hates her bassinet. We put her down in it and she almost instantly wakes up and throws quite a fit for a little girl. We have found however, that she LOVES her bouncy seat. So the bouncy seat it letting us get sleep. Probably a bad habit to get into, but I could not deal with another night of being awake from 2:15 to 5:15 am.

Keira is still doing well with Mallory - loves her bunches and consistently wants to hug and love on her. She is getting better about being more gentle, so that is good.

Mallory is started to have longer periods of wakefulness - she is kicking her feet, stretching her arms, and finding her fists to get them in her mouth. It's pretty cute.

Anyhow, just wanted to update you all and let you know we are surviving! I'll try to get some more pictures up this week!

I let Anna sleep wherever she would - car seat, swing, bouncer, and eventually she acclimated to her bed on her own so don't worry, just get sleep.
